Swedish Explorer Johan Ernst Nilson Embarks on
Climate Neutral | Pole2Pole Yearlong Project.

Johan Ernst NilsonBeing the highest-paid professional athlete—astounding. Winning the Tour de France seven consecutive times— astonishing. Traveling from the North to the South Pole using only Climate Neutral equipment—unbelievable!
Swedish explorer Johan Ernst Nilson commenced his global journey on the anniversary of American Explorer Robert E. Peary’s famous expedition to the North Pole. Throughout his Climate Neutral | Pole2Pole Project, Johan will use green-friendly equipment, as he started his 124 mile hike on the Arctic ice of the North Pole into Greenland, navigating across the Arctic Ocean to Ottawa, Canada. Next, he will cycle six months through North and South America, stopping in major United States cities including New York, NY, Washington, DC, and Houston, TX, through the Amazon Jungle before arriving in Patagonia. Finally, he will set sail to Antarctica, where he awaits a two-month journey on skis and a parafoil, to the South Pole.
Since accomplishing his first expedition in 1994 (biking from Stockholm to Morocco in 52 days), Johan has continuously sought out more ambitious and elaborate projects. To date, he has completed some 30 excursions across 100 countries, as well as published a photobook titled Seven Summits – The Photobook, featuring images from his Seven Summits journey, in which he reached the summits of the highest mountains on each of the seven continents, including Mount Everest, Mount McKinley and the Vinson Massif. He has teamed up with iconic brands such as ZENITH Watchmaker, Ramlösa, Svenska PostkodLotteriet and Audi—which has recently named him a brand Ambassador along with Justin Timberlake, plus designed and developed a lightweight sled that he will use on his journey.
About Johan Ernst Nilson: In addition to his numerous adventures, Johan seeks to give back to the community, with such charitable involvements as being an Ambassador for International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), MinStoraDag and Swedish PostcodeLottery, Honorary Goodwill Ambassador, Nepal and is a member of The Explorers Club, just to name a few. In between travels, Johan also manages to hold lectures ranging from motivational speeches to eco-friendly awareness.
